Initially I thought it would not be that difficult. How difficult is it to submit a script and a storyboard? But after sitting down and going through wht a preproduction document is made up of, I realised the script and the storyboard are just the tip of the iceberg.
Basically we are supposed to not only submit the script and storyboard but also to create a detailed timeline of our production schedule and a budget as well as other resources we need. So after much brainstorming, we decided to break down our jobscope. Basically after deciding on the concept of our video, we went down to reproducing it on paper.
The concept of the video was to promote NUS. And for that we decided to use the normal everyday sounds of NUS life to create a music video. This concept is very much like the STOMP concept but obviously we are not going to copy the entire idea wholesale.
First since our video does not require speech so much, our script lacked the verbal dialogue aspect. It is just made up of the different locations and scenes we intend to have. The video is also going to be made up of scenes of people in NUS and the sounds created from it and the scenes would flash in and out to create both the aesthetics and also the visual content.
The process of filming is also difficult since it is very difficult to get the scenes and sounds to be insync since we are getting them separately. Financing is also not an issue since most of our equipments can be borrowed from NUS and since the video is to reflect NUS life, we pretty much have the things essential to film the scenes. So no extra or extravagant charges are incurred. Location wise, is also not an issue since NUS is pretty open and allow us to film if we do have legitimate academic reasons.
Below is an example of our storyboard.
